Weird World: boy, 6, ready for university

The family of a gifted six-year-old boy are trying to get a court order to allow him to attend university. Child prodigy Maximiliano Arellano, from Mexico City, has been studying medicine on his own, reports UOL Noticias Populares. He has reportedly become an expert in the fields of osteoporosis, diabetes and anaemia and has been invited to speak in congresses all over Mexico. However Roberty Camacho, the director of Mexico Medical State University, says he thinks the boy is too young for university. The boy's mother, Alejandra de Noe, who believes Maximiliano could be a qualified doctor by the age of 13, is challenging his decision. And Maximiliano said: "I want to become a doctor so I can cure people!" Mr. Camacho is now said to be considering testing the boy's ability because of his growing fame in the country.
